so games' over? Cav and Sancta are both gone?

wtf? I thought the city gifting thing was just a joke or something... wow lame.

If we are going to seriously talk about this, we need a full resource count to start. Typically, a food corporation is stronger than jewelers is because food = more cottages worked; more specialists. This usually generates more $$ than straight up cash from jewelers. And food = more flexibility...

The trouble is that it would be hard to get a merchant GP I think... Or an engineer for mining. A scientist would be easiest for ethanol. We might actually consider saving our GS is we are considering ethanol for the long run.

jewelers is the weakest of all the corporations. Though aluminum corp and ethanol is pretty crap as well. I would prefer sushi or cereal, and mining if we can get it. Cereal is probably better than sushi because we don't have a huge amount of fish. Mining would be absolutely huge for us...

I'm okay with Cav garrisoning it with their wounded. But I would be against sending out "strike forces" to the minor cities. Any spare soldiers should advance with our main stack. Chai does absolutely nothing economically or militarily for us or for Sancta right now. After we take Dragon Tears...

If you are positive on point #1 then I guess we can go for it. I don't remember what the tech tree looks like. How critical is Mass Media?

I think we should ignore Chai or any minor city entirely until later. We gain nothing for grabbing them right now, and frankly, they are economically insignificant or even negative at the moment. As far as I'm concerned, Sancta can go ahead and develop them for us until we take them later. We...

I have 2 problems with the AP 1) we are at war. I don't know how I feel about redirecting a large amount of resources toward the AP at this point 2) We are not THAT far from the UN now. How many turns for the AP to become obsolete? 50? 60?

Also, are we informing Cav that we need them to take TKY?

what great person are we going for next now that we have our prophet? Are we going to get another scientist? Or are we going for another prophet for 2 shrines?

Ok sounds good. We let Cav attack then. Their forces should be enough to reduce the city right?

How many turns is Cav's army from TKY? I don't think we are going to arrive at Dragon until the units in there are fully healed. And every turn we delay at TKY = more uber upgraded rifles to fight. If it takes more than 1 or 2 turns for Cav to reach TKY, we should take it IMO. We can always...

Honestly, if I had to bet, I'd say Sancta somehow is gaming the system but we have no idea how. One or two lucky battles is fine. But lucky ALL THE TIME? Can someone go and get all our old combat logs. What is the % of time Sancta won battles with odds of less than 30%; and how frequently do...

holy sh!t those are unbelievable odds... The chances of Sancta winning ALL those low odd battles are infinitesimally small. This is ridiculous. So I guess the UN investigation didn't find any shenanigans from Sancta?
